Canadian Club is one of the few Canadian whiskies available nearly everywhere in the world where there’s a bar. Long before its prime time television appearances in the hands of Nucky Thompson and Don Draper, it was enjoyed in over 150 countries. After 100 years as a mixing whisky, several new versions, including this ten-year-old were added to the line. Unlike most Canadian whiskies, Canadian Club is blended as new spirit before it goes into the barrel.

DISTILLED IN CANADA AND AGED IN BARRELS FOR AT LEAST THREE YEARS; OFTEN (BUT NOT ALWAYS) CANADIAN WHISKIES ARE BLENDS OF CORN, BARLEY, AND RYE WHISKIES WHICH WERE DISTILLED AND MATURED SEPARATELY. TRADITIONALLY, CANADIAN WHISKEY IS CALLED “RYE”, ALTHOUGH NO MINIMUM PERCENTAGE OF RYE-GRAIN WHISKY IS REQUIRED IN A BLEND.

Tasting Notes

"Old-style flinty Canadian rye whisky. Sweet voluptuous toffees and peppery heat mingle with Canadian Club’s signature dark fruitiness. The heat becomes a showdown between ginger and white pepper until it dissolves into the slightly bitter pull of grapefruit pith. Hard, steely flint in the background.
